Why Bigfork?

Ali explains. “All roads led to Montana, which is apropos considering the first film will be dedicated to my Pop, who was born and raised in Havre, MT, though I’m sad to say he passed away before we could make this film happen. Pop was always supportive of my crazy/creative schemes and dreams. He would’ve really liked this, all of this.

We chose Bigfork in particular because we wanted to find an adventure and location that wouldn’t be your first thought when someone says, “Let’s go dog sledding,” because it’s not saturated by the tourist industry and therefore, still very much authentic. Even music placement was magic. One look around and we found great talents from the surrounding areas and chose to feature the music of Montanan artist, Kati O’Toole.

The more we looked at Montana, the clearer it became that this is where we were meant to be.”

About Ali: Ali was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer on her 45th birthday in September of 2010. Since then, she had undergone years of on again/off again chemotherapy and radiation treatments. As of December, 2016 Ali is 14 months into her 4th remission (her longest yet) and is determined to make the most of life while inspiring others.
